AAC AAAC ACSR AACSR ACAR ACS AL BARE CONDUCTOR
AAC--Aluminum Strand Conductor
Applications
Stranded 1350 aluminum conductors shown in this section of data are
classified as follows:
Class AA For bare conductors usually used in overhead lines.
Class A For conductors to be covered with weather-resistant
materials and for bare conductors where greater flexibility is
required.
Compact strand conductor for use in bare overhead applications or
for use with weather-resistant coverings or insulations is also
available.
Classes refer to stranding and are an indication of relative
conductor flexibility, AA being the least flexible, C the most
flexible.
Construction
Aluminum alloy 1350-H19 wires, concentrically stranded.
Specifications
AAC bare conductors meet or exceed the following ASTM
specifications :
B-230 Aluminum Wire, 1250-H19 for Electrical Purposes
B-231 Aluminum Conductors, Concentric-Lay-Stranded
B-400 Compact Round Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum 1350
Conductors
ACSR--Aluminum Strand Conductor Steel Reinforced
Applications
Used as bare overhead transmission cable and as primary and
secondary distribution cable. ACSR offers optimal strength for line
design. Variable steel core stranding enables desired strength to
be achieved without sacrificing ampacity.
Construction
Aluminum alloy 1350-H-19 wires, concentrically stranded about a
steel core. Core wire for ACSR is available with class A, B, or C
galvanizing; ""aluminized"" aluminum coated (AZ); or aluminum-clad
(AW) - please see our ACSR/AW spec for more information. Additional
corrosion protection is available through the application of grease
to the corer or infusion of the complete cable with grease.

AAAC 6201--Aluminum Alloy Bare Conductor
Applications
Used as bare overhead conductor for primary and secondary
distribution. Designed utilizing a high-strength aluminum alloy to
achieve a high strength-to-weight ratio; affords better sag
characteristics. Aluminum alloy gives AAAC higher resistance to
corrosion than ACSR.
Construction
Standard 6201-T81 high strength aluminum conductors, conforming to
ASTM Specification B-399, are concentric-lay- stranded, similar in
construction and appearance to 1350 grade aluminum conductors.
Standard 6201 alloy conductors are similar to other alloy
conductors commercially known as Ardival, Aldrey or Almelec. They
were developed to fill the need for an economical conductor for
overhead applications requiring higher strength than that
obtainable with 1350 grade aluminum conductors, but without a steel
core. The DC resistance at 20°C of the 6201-T81 conductors and of
the standard ACSRs of the same diameter are approximately the same.
Conductors of the 6201-T81 alloys are harder and, therefore, have a
greater resistance to abrasion than conductors of 1350-H19 grade
aluminum.
Specifications
AAAC bare conductor meets or exceeds the following ASTM
specifications :
B-398 Aluminum Alloy 6201-T81 Wire for Electrical Purposes
B-399 Concentric-Lay-Stranded 6201-T81 Aluminum Alloy Conductors.
ACAR--Aluminum Conductor Aluminum Alloy Reinforced
Applications
ACAR cables are used for overhead transmission and distribution
lines.
Construction
Concentric-stranded cable formed by a core of 6201-T81 aluminum
alloy wires surrounded by 1350 H-19 aluminum wires concentrically
stranded over the alloy core. Some designs have 1350 aluminum wires
and 6201 alloy wires intercalated in the same layer.
Features
Very good ratio Tensile Strength to Weight. Highly resistant to
corrosion.
